Running is freedom.

Feet pounding against the pavement beneath me is an exilerating feeling. I feel as though im leaving all my regrets behind me each step I take. With each step comes more sweat, shedding toxins from my body. Flying past everything is empowering, and almost.. fun?  Although im not in the greatest shape each leap counts. Running has become a daily routine for me, ( when I can force myself out of bed ) Everyday youll see new people, new vehicles everything new. Besides the sidewalk, it never changes. Thats what I like about it, amongst everything else in the world, it will never change.  Its almost like a security floating down this cement path, it keeps me content when other things in my life are anything but savvy. In health, its something I can always have. Running will never change, my body may change over years ( hopefully for the better) but the quick paced jog will never fail. I love running!

Living in a dream

Although the entrance was anything but graceful, the ending result was superb. Kayaking, Id always considered the thought of trying it. The thought was never an opprotunity so when a chance arrose I was sold. First seat was very wobbily, paddling was not fabulous. Salt water had my hair crunchy and my lips zesty. BUT, paddle after paddle the rythme of the water came easily. A race against the chained trees. The water was like glass beneath me, not a single ripple in the horizon. Nothing but absolute tranquility, a heaven sent. Others were around, but not of my kind. Seals and otters danced beneath my feet, veterens of the gorge. Their child like personalities showed the youth of my surroundings. Nothing but sheer calm was around. All other stresses and denial were completely banished from my brain, further with each stroke. The tip of the paddle like the tip of a paint brush, drawing through the crust of the water. Living in a painting, the unrealistic. But suddenly reality.

In other words.. GO KAYAKING!

City Slick

2 weeks into living in my new home, and im inlove already. At first I wasnt so fond of it, but ive come to get the hang of everything. I start school very soon and I can’t wait. Thus far everything been going really well. Im not yet used to having a friend around me at all times, somtimes situations that shouldnt be situations at all, are. The independence isnt at all as brudal as I thought it would be.Young adult hood has taken my lightly and Im embracing it with open arms. Although life is smooth sailing right now I know school will make it a little less thrilling but, such is life.  I call it how i see.

Welcome to the City life

An elder drops somthing, you pick it up. Someone’s ahead of you in line, you respect that and dont budge. Basic curtesy, or at least that is what I thought. I’ve just recently moved to a city and the way people are astonishes me! It seems to me that people are 100% out for themselves. I’ve yet to meet someone with common integerity. I’ve witnessed an old man in a wheel chair struggling to pick up his bag he had dropped and watched dozens of people walk by! What the hell has this world come to, I dont understand it at all. A woman even got her child to budge infront of me when I waited in line for nearly 20 minutes to pay for my items. Where im from everybody is polite and kind and they most definatly help other when theyre in need. I felt as though people were suprised when Id say thank you or excuse me. It just seems very odd to me, maybe I can teach a few people a thing or two! ALL negative opnions asside, this city is beautiful. It has this rustik yet  modern twist to it. Its also right on the ocean which is a major plus as I love the water. On a jog yesturday I came across an adorable seal and sat and watched her for quite some time. I can definatly say Ill be spending alot of time down by the water. I am looking forward to my new life.

Youth in our veins

Memories and laughs so sharp in my skull
Eggs and bottles a cheap thrill
Always side by side through every hill
Getting caught and never learning
Wanting to grow old and have no rules
Wishing and waiting for the time to pass
Hating early mornings and countless assignments
Worrying over the little things
The ignorance was our bliss,
The time has come to flourish, to bloom
The hopes and dreams we once carried
Can now begin
Our hats thrown high, our deplomas written in gold
This is it, life begins now

Embrace your memories, hold them tight
Remember the smiles, recollect
Cherish the moments, the lessons from your youth
Two feet and a heart beat, begin your journey independantly.
Your dreams await you
 

 

 

Talk to me Dawg

I havent owned a dog since I was a child, and due to that I have an odd persona around them. Quite regularly I dog sit for my Aunt. I love her two dogs they’re so funny. I always do this discusting high-pitch voice when I see the k9s. When there little tails wag ans their feet start movin I cant help myself. Ive always thought of dogs like walking cameras. Whether youre changing or getting out of the shower its hard not to feel odd with their beady eyes on you. I cant help but wonder theyre thinking. ” Check out that fat ass! ” Its plausable.

Don’t feed me violence

Among many thoughts that have crossed my mind the reason for police has been one of them. In society people that are there to avoid conflicts and potentially help us, has been the norm since the beginning of time. Which makes me than wonder, why? Why has there always been those rebels that cause trouble for no good reason. There had to have been a time that people came to realise they need people to protect the innocent, and enforce laws. Certain people have always gone against the grain and caused harm and violence to those around them.

Now don’t get me wrong, im all for people rebeling for the right reasons. Alot of our freedom rights wouldnt be here today if brave people in the past didnt put their foot down. But there are so many different tactics to how we go about this rebeling. I believe in fighting for what you believe, but at the same time you need to go about it in a way thats not completely irrational.

Its made me really think about how twisted the human race really can be. Why can’t everybody just live in peace and be positive. The need to cause havoc at all times is just beyond me. Why is there murder and rape? There are so many negative things that our race contributes to the world. We can’t even respect eachother half the time. Alot of people dont show pride in their communites even, vandalizing and robbing places. Therefore we have to have Police. Its just a thought, what would the world be like if everybody was just good through and through? If people just put there positive sides forward and just lived the happy life. In reality, isn’t that exactly what everybody wants?

sincerely.

Zest for the life you live

 Day to day we find ourselves with obstacles before us, whether they be large or small they do exsist. Everybody deals with these things differently but regardless they shape who you are as a human being. As a child I think the people who surround somehow inprint on you. The way they react to situations and their environment can ultimatly rub off onto you.

 I feel as time goes by you grow wiser and usually learn from things that have happened in the road you’ve walked. Things happen in your life that you can’t always control, but you can control how you get through them. Living a day at a time is the only real way to survive. Not dwelling on the what could have beens, If it should have it probably would have. We only have one life to ever live, so why not live it to the absolute fullest. Do the things that make you smile, even if they seem insane to those watchings eyes. For they are blind to what you desire.

Always walk with one foot infront of the other with confidence, realise that life really is just a game. You’re just another player among many, everyones trying to survive. We need to enjoy the ride and live wrecklessly sometimes. If some things stop you in your tracks, why not take a leap? Why live a life if you’re not even living! Don’t leave your book wordless, fill it with tales and memories.

There comes a point in everybodys life that they need to be selfish. Keep your head high and strive for excellence just for yourself, and nobody else. A time in your life you will need to just focus on yourself and live a little. Whether it be dangerous or just something little that you love doing. Do it! Never be afraid to live your life on the edge because somtimes the things that scare us, really are the things that keep our hearts beating. It may be cliche, but its oh so very true.  Live everyday like its your last.

love lost

In your life you may be lucky enough to meet a person very similar to yourself. A friend that seems more like a soul mate than just a friend.  In the Summer of 2010 I was lucky enough to come across a girl I’d known but never really taken the time to get to know. Over the Summer both of our closest friends were away for holidays so needless to say we were forced to hang out dude to severe bordem. Within a couple of hours we both completely opened up to one another and I realised we weren’t that different at all. Sure we dressed different and had different friends, but we were the same.

She was always so odd and thought outside of the box just like me, if anything crossed my mind as we layed baking on her roof i’d spit it out. And she’d always agree and add onto the rediculous thing I just said. Over time we were together everyday, when somthing was bothering me or I had a snide remark about someone she would rarly speak down on them. Always a positive happy person, somthing I really needed in my life at the time. Even when I would speak about the horrible things my boyfriend did she would always think of a positive reason it could have happend. Although there was no good reason as to why those things had happend, She’d still think of one.

As time went on she started seeing a new guy shortly after he last boyfriend moved. I was completely supportive because the guy was a close friend at the time. After awhile instead of it always being us two, he’d be in the mix. Things were still good though, still fun. Fast forward to now, her boyfriend has done her wrong many times. I’ve had to hear about everything hes done and comfort her. Constantly preaching her on how she deserves the best and that she shouldn’t be with him. She never listens though, and I wish she’d trust what I have to say. Now it seems nearly impossible to hang out with her, I have to put so much effort into it. And when she finally does have the time to hang out, whos in the driver seat when she picks me up? Her Boyfriend.

What is it about certain relationships that tear friends apart. It seriously offends me that im put last to him when I’ve been nothing but a good friend in her life. When all he’s done is break her heart and treat her like dirt. Isnt that like a slap in the face? Why are girls so blind to what important in their lives. I can tell shes unhappy, and I just dont understand why she can’t let him go. Its insanity to me. So my question is, if a close friend doesn’t put any effort in, should I?

Sincerely;

Wait, thats my weight?

Being thin is not only looked at as beautiful in society, but by most woman. Myself included, there have been times when i’ve weighed myself and been absolutely appalled. I don’t know what it is about being a certain number that just drives the females insane, but its evident and very real. If you watch tv even for an instant you see what all the networks see as beauty. Most of these things seem unrealistic. Think about people in your life that you know, how many of them have the body of an hour glass and long perfect locks. Probably not many, if any at all. In reality, thats not beauty at all. Its the perception people have built for themselves. The perfect woman has big boogs, blonde hair, and is probably not all that smart. She’ll bare children for you and stay at home and do all the things a “perfect” woman should do.

We’re in the 21st century and looks are more important than ever. But what about personality and self confidence? Aren’t these equally important in order to have a perfect woman? I believe so, the key thing to being truly beautiful is having an interesting, kind personality as well. Believe it or not not every guy out there is totally for the looks. Woman need to build their confidence and love themselves before they can love another.

Speaking from expierience i’ve always been a confident girl, since childhood i’ve never really cared all that much about my looks. Or about what people thought about my hair or clothing. There was alot of time that I didn’t put my bestface forward and I was completely fine with that because I have confidence. In order to feel beautiful you need to have confidence. I really believe this is the key to having happiness with yourself. Weight can become an obsession for girls and women alike, which is a really sad thing. Of course keeping active and healthy is important, but not if youre obsessing over the number on the scale. Accept the weight you are, if you’re unhealthy than make healthy changes!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
